Harry Potter. London.

Harry was sitting at the table with all of his friends, while Mrs. Weasley was rumaging through cabinets and cupboards, looking for something to make for everyone to eat.

" Mum, what did you call us for?" whined Ginny.

" Just a moment. Let me get a pot of tea going." once she was done, she sat down at the table with a package of cookies, " Okay children." another loud cough from Fred and Gorge, " And Fred and Gorge." she added on giving the twins a look, to which they gave her a cheeky smile, " Alright. As you all might know, we are going to have someone staying here with us for the rest of the summer."

Imediatly she was bombarded with questions.

" Quiet!" she commanded," Now, as I was saying, this. . . guest. . . will be treated kindly. . . if she is to come. . . so no rude comments." she looked spesificaly at the twins, who gave her innocent looks in return. She paused for a second," I think that's all I should tell you."

Again there was an uproar, before she silenced them all again.

" Can you tell us one more thing?" asked Harry. Mrs. Weasley nodded," What's her name." Mrs. Weasley looked at him for a moment before answering.

" Her name is Dawn."

( A.N. sarcasticaly Betcha didn't see that coming. ;) )

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dawn Summers. Italy.

Dawn was starting to get frustrated. Her sister wouldn't even consider letting her go.

" Absolutly not." Buffy said for what seemed like the millionth time.

" Come on Buffy! It's not like I'm gonna see less than I do already." argued the younger Summers girl.

" What's that supposed to mean?!'

" That your never around!"

The others just watched. Their heads turned back and forth like it was a tennis match. Finaly after an hour of the sisters' battle, Giles stood up, and they both fell silent.

" Buffy, Dawn." he said calmly," Why don't you sit down and we'll talk about this." Of course Buffy listened to him, but Dawn still stood and leaned against a wall. She was trying really hard to keep from saying a spell that would send her older sister to another dimension with no way back.

" What's there to talk about Giles?!" exclaimed Buffy," She's not going."

" Did you even consider that it may have been a mistake?" he questioned. Off of her confused look he elaborated," Hogwarts is a school for witches and wizards. Dawn is neither of those."

Dawn started to choke on air, and everyone looked at her oddly. Then they all heard a small pop, and then a man was standing next to her. Everyone stood up and got into a fighting stance ( except for Andrew, who hid behind the table). The man held up his hands in supprise.

" Don't worry. I'm a friend." he said hurriedly.

Faith snorted," I've heard that before."

" No really! I'm from Hogwarts. I've come to pick up a Miss. Dawn Summers."

" I'm sorry, but Dawn won't be attending this school of yours." Buffy told him, her voice showing that clearly she wasn't verry sorry at all.

" Oh, but she must." he insisted.

" She's not even a witch." said Xander, speeking up. Dawn's eyes went wide. The strange man looked over to her, and gave her a questioning look.

" They don't know?" he asked suprised. Dawn shook her head. The man looked back to the others.

" I'm sorry. I didn't relise she hadn't told you yet."

Buffy looked at Dawn, " Tell us what exactly, Dawnie?"

" That I've been studying witchcraft." she admited quietly.

" She's quite good to." the man put in. Dawn gave him a small kind smile.

" Why didn't you tell me?" asked Buffy.

" Because your never here!" she exclaimed," None of you are! I live with Willow and Kennedy most of the time, but even then I've only seen them for five minutes in the past month!" Everyone imediatly looked guilty," Now, I'm going to this school, so I'll go pack my bags now." She looked at the man," I'll be back in a second." she told him.

She ran up the staires to her room, said a quick spell, and she had two huge suitcases- packed with everything she needed- sitting in front of her. She grabbed them along with two pictures. One of everyone when they all first arived in Italy before most of them left, and the other of her mom, Buffy, herself, all sitting in front of their house back in Sunnydale. She put those in an empty pocket of a suitcase, then ran back down the staires and into the kitchen. Buffy stepped forward. While Dawn was in her room, she had been thinking. She was about to say the same thing to her baby sister, as her mom had said to her when she found out that she was a slayer.

" Dawn." she said calmly. Dawn looked over at her," if you leave this house, then don't even think about coming back."

Everyone looked at Buffy like she was insane, but it was her sister's look that killed her. She looked like she had just been shot, and was still in shock.

" Then goodbye." Dawn said sadly," I love you." she looked at everyone else," I'll miss you guys. Take care." then she turned to the man," Let's go." He took one of her suitcases, grabbed her shoulder with his free hand, and then they were gone with a pop.
